That 40hrs battery life is only with ATRAC3plus @ 48Khz (i.e
cr@p quality!).
Also as stated in the review, the UI isn't as intuitive as the iPod (what is?)
Plus, I wouldn't believe too much of a review made by staff of the shop that's selling the item! They're likely to be biased in order to sell more - maybe the profit margin is higher on the Sony's!

i have most of my music in mp3 format 128-320kbs, took it on holiday and didnt have to charge it once! and yes i got around 35hrs playback time at 75% volume.
as well as that its smaller than an ipod more ipod mini size.(it fits in a 20 box of cigarettes)
the UI is improved over the HD1 and HD3, as it has initials search and playlists.
also you can orient the screen any way you like, depending on which way you are holding it when you switch it on, it switches the screen that way!!!!
